I have the Hilltop Fanny Pack too. I use mine mostly to carry my drone in my pack (waterproof) but then I use it for a day pack around camp. I love it!! Great comparison Tom!
I love a fanny pack when backpacking. I put my phone and tripod, chapstick, $, driver's license, and some snacks in there. I need the extra place to put additional items that are too big to fit in the side zippered pouches of my pack. Plus when I take off my pack and go get water or walk around, I have that stuff with me without leaving it behind and having to worry it might disappear. And of course, it's great to be hands-free. Great review ~RVA~
Tom, I am sold on my Hilltop fanny pack. I use the attachment for my backpack and it’s great. I’ve used it for 4 months and over 500 miles in rain and sun. It’s been water proof, convenient, and comfortable. Thanks for sharing! Dan
Hello Tom, I have the zpacks multi-pack. I like it but I wish it was just a little bigger. I look forward to your update on the hill top pack. Thanks for sharing. Take Care.
Hill Tops is awesome!! Roll top is neat for a backpack… access once or twice a day. I absolutely love my Fanny pack and get into it probably 20-30x a day while hiking long days. I’ve got to have a zipper, roll top is just a pita. Besides, can’t imagine finding anything as you are tunneled in the tall unfolding part. On the surface, roll top seems all cool like the backpacks, but IMO very impractical for a Fanny pack if accessed several x’s a day while hiking. Hope ymmv.
Hi Tom. Looks like a great little bag for all your small stuff like snacks phone coins money passport or ID small flashlight sunglasses case with or without sun glasses etc. etc. I may have to get one. Thanks Tom for the review and info. How are you, by the way? Long time since we last communicated, no? Did you get the RV / Van all up to speed? Been using it? I'll bet you have. We're under water restrictions already and it's only June 8th. other than that it is great. Take care of yourself. Keep in touch too. Tell us about the bag after you break it in. See Ya Tom...Bart
Hello Bart! Good to hear from you. All is good & yes the Van is about 90%. I’ll always be doing something to improve it. Been I s few trips with it & taking off for 3 weeks this summer driving & hiking from Fl to Pictured rocks in upper Michigan. The bag should work great. Take care. 👍👍✌️
I got mine recently. Just used it this past weekend. It's definitely a winner for me.
That’s good to hear. Headed to the Smokys in a few weeks & will use it then. 👍
nice sharing video thumbs up...

how does that hilltop fanny pack sit/work in expanded 4L mode ? stable ? awkward ? video ?
Well I’m not sure. You mean when it’s fully open & not rolled? I imagine that would feel bulky. I roll it up & I love it at this point. 👍
